SPIED: Unknown... Audi?

I was driving in Cincinnati and caught a new car in the back of an Audi lot. It was covered in plastic so I wanted to get a better look at this new SUV. I'm not sure what it is, it was completly unmarked, except for a serial number on the drivers window. I took the images on my cell phone, so the images are not the best quality. I took interior pictures, but they turned out bad. The new suv has 4 doors and is about as big as a VW Touareg, only the new Touareg has already been released. What is this "mysterious" suv? There's not much to report about it, with it being covered. Maybe you know what it is.

@bimmer

tell me this... why would porsche, sharing a dealer with volvo,(a gm company) be putting all there cars in a VOLVO dealer lot and not with audi?? audi has a plenty large lot for about 100 porsches. instead they put 100 toyota corollas in the audi lot.

Volvo is owned by Ford. Also your post makes no sense at all.

The plastic rocker panel protector that protrudes about 4 inches out from the body makes me believe it's a BMW X3 deliberately photographed in front of an Audi dealer to throw car spies off. BTW, my wife took the X3 off our shopping list because that type of rocker panel protection gets her pants dirty in the winter when getting in and out of the vehicle. I hope it's not a general trend among German car makers who could be accused of deliberately introducing a design flaw so that their cars become obsolete when the customer discovers the flaw and is motivated to buy a new car ASAP.

Wow, I can't believe there are this many people who don't know what they are looking at. it is a Porsche Cayenne. Why was it on an Audi lot? I'm not sure how many people pay attention but most VW dealers also have Audi and Porsche and it's not just because they are related. The Cayenne and Touareg share the most while the Q7 only shares about 15% with them. This dealer more than likely has a Porsche point as well. But it is without any doubt a Cayenne!

Touaregs do not come wrapped, they have protective sheeting pasted on the hood, mirrors etc. Audis are wrapped but have the four rings in red on the fabric. So that leaves Porsche. Also if you look at the shape of the hood and the headlight assembly, it's those of a Cayenne.
